The Lycan King and His Dark Temptation Novel

---- 187. I'M INNOCENT UNTIL PROVEN OTHERWISE VICTORIA He spat it out, full of venom. The wolf behind me was on high alert. | could feel his hand close to my waist, ready to yank me back to his side. "No. | swear on my mother, the most sacred thing | have. Father, | was trying to find a way back... but | just didn't know how." And | wasn't lying-I really had tried. "In the short moment Katherine visited me in a dream, we barely got to talk.

She said something about my blood dripping over something... but | didn't know what to do with that half-assed clue. The dream ended too abruptly. This world isn't like ours. Magic works differently here-too much interference." | explained it as fast as | could, doing my best, though there was still so much left unsaid. "Dad..." | stepped closer, taking his cold hands. Behind me, a warning growl rumbled. ---- Yeah, | knew Dracomir was too damn possessive with me-but this was my father.

He'd have to suck it up. "This realm already has enough problems. Please don't attack my mate..." "Are you sure he's your mate?" he asked, more slowly now. At least he hadn't pulled his hands away-I was gaining ground "She's my female." Before | could even speak, the Lord cut in for me. | was about to step forward, but | turned and glared daggers at him.

"Don't make this harder for me, Draco." "rll explain whatever you want, ask your parents for you, but you're not going anywhere far from me, Victoria. Get that through your head." Before I could shoot back a venomous reply. "| don't give a fuck what you're saying to my daughter in her mind. | still haven't decided if | accept you as her mate." Dad suddenly pulled me to his side. | heard Draco's furious roar behind me.

This wasn't going ---- anywhere "And | don't give a fuck about your arrogant attitude! You barge into my home, invade my privacy, and try to take my woman?! HELL NO!" Dracomir's rage exploded in the room. His lycan was speaking now, taking over. | already saw his face starting to shift, brown fur sprouting in patches. "Well then, she'll be a widow before you even mark her..." "DAD, NOOO!" Goddammit, not again! But before the walls and floor started cracking...

Before the dead could rise and wreak havoc... a flash of light froze the entire scene. Magic echoed through the room, and a ghostly wind swept over everything, rattling papers and cooling tempers Draco took the chance and leapt to grab me. He knew what he feared most was me leaving him behind and going back home.
